Last week I had a bit of fun with my post comparing voice over acting to porn acting. In the midst of my brainstorm, it was also clear to me that voice over acting isn’t exactly like porn acting. There are several important differences. So, in the spirit of providing both sides to argument, here are all the ways in which voice over acting differs from porn acting.

No fluffers.

The talent generally isn’t as sexy

In porn, no one cares about the script

Video is more important in porn. Audio rules for voice overs.

You can repeat the money shot as many times as the director needs you in a short amount of time without needing a break to, um, ¨recharge¨

No cameras in the studio

Don’t have to get naked.

Don’t have to worry about STDs

When you’re done, you don’t need a shower

There are no galleries on the internet of you performing

No one cares what you look like naked. If they do, it’s useful to remember #2

Again, no fluffers

So what did I miss? Would love to hear from you other differences between voice over acting and porn acting. Can’t wait to see the responses!
